Charlotte County Sheriff's Office detectives are seeking the public's assistance in identifying a man who took more than $300 in merchandise from a Port Charlotte Walmart in early November.

The man is described as 5-foot-8 and was wearing a black T-shirt with gray/black basketball shorts and a tan flat-billed hat.

Sheriff's office reports said a man entered the Walmart super center at 19100 Murdock Circle with an empty shopping cart around 1 a.m. on Nov. 2. He went to several departments and plucked items that were put into the cart, went to an empty register area and took shopping bags that he put those items in, then left the store without paying.

Anyone with information is asked to call the sheriff's office at (941) 639-2101 and ask for district detectives, or call Crime Stoppers at 800-780-TIPS (8477).
